Switchblade

Solid pack

I recently purchased the Jackknife and I was impressed with the quality but the pack was just a bit too small for what I need. So I returned that pack and picked up the Switchblade. This pack is the perfect size for my needs. I pack my computer, work clothes, towel, shoes, toiletries, water bottle, EDC, magazines and sometimes SBR with ease.

The quality of pack is impressive. I hike and sometimes trail run before work with the pack and the shoulder straps are very comfortable. The back of the pack breathes very well. The zippers are solid, the only thing I have found is when I carry my SBR and hike sometimes the zippers work there way open if you close them at the top dead center of the pack. I close them so they meet in the front of the pack. Nothing a s-biner can’t fix.

Overall a very impressive pack and I would recommend it to anyone that needs to carry a days worth of things whether it’s to the office or day trip in the backcountry.

Excellent quality, above and beyond storage space and options for its size. Comfortable to carry and convenient to access on the go. Everything I need and then some!

I like the Bag. There are some things that I find very lovely and some things that are a little upsetting. The weight distribution is fantastic. I put about 60 pounds in the bag, and it felt great all day. Now, the one thing I would prefer to avoid is that I have to lean it against something for it to stay up straight. I do find this frustrating, but I understand why it does this. One for easy access to your things in the bag, but if you don't lean it against something, it is hard to pull your sidearm out. Overall a great bag, and I would recommend it to anyone.

I love this bag. It has great organization, it’s durable and well made. My disappointment with this pack is the straps. The material on the under side of the straps is similar to a Brillo pad or sand paper. If you are wearing a jacket or thick shirt no problem. But it will rub your shoulders raw with a thin shirt or if you were to hike without a shirt for a period of time.

The pack is so well thought out and well done otherwise it’s a shame that the straps are so uncomfortable. It would be nice if you offered a different material or strap set up. I’ve used many mountaineering packs and rock climbing packs and the straps were much better.

I was between the switchblade, the bandit and the jacknife. Customer service reached out as I had all 3 in my cart. I told them I was between the 3 bags and wouldn’t you know it but they had a video that went through the differences, space, attachments and special features per each bag. Ended on the switchblade and I’m very happy with the purchase.

Pack is perfect for carrying my EDC gear along with my laptop for work. I went with the blue so it would blend in and not stand out like a tactical bag. Well made and super durable
